If you don't mind...

The last time I tried this, I got very distracted with medical issues and family problems, so I completely forgot about it. Shall we try again? We shall! =]


For those of you who don't remember or have never participated in the Compliment Swap, here's what happens.


Submit your screen name and your REAL name to me, either by the way of PM, Email, Messenger, or on this thread directly.
Once we have gotten everyone who wants to participate, I compile a list of everyones names.
You take the list of EVERYONES names and compliment each person on the list. (Obviously not yourself, unless you want to!) Nothing huge or dramatic is needed, just a simple, feel-good compliment to each person on the list, even if you aren't friends with that person. If it comes up that you don't know the person AT ALL, please make an effort to look up some of their posts, PM them, talk to them or some other way. Please try not to make stuff up!
Once you are finished complimenting everyone, send the list back to me via PM. If for some reason you cannot send it by PM, you may email me or send it through Messenger.
After I get all of the lists (or most of them, in past cases!) I put each persons compliments onto another sheet and then I send all of YOUR compliments (the compliments people have said about YOU) to you. You do not get to see who sends them, unless the person signs their names after their compliments.


I have hosted a number of these in the past, and I hope everyone feels comfortable with me hosting it again.

As for the DEADLINE for submissions of names::

This is completely up for discussion. I was thinking maybe July 24th, or the 31st. It's up to you, guys!

Any ideas, suggestions, hints, compliments, complaints? Suggestions needed and welcomed!

In the mean time, START SIGNING UP! Remember, submit your SCREENNAME (I can usually find that one!) AND your REAL name.

Have fun! The list of those entered will be posted below.

We've done this at work a couple of times. It's actually a very neat thing. It will be difficult since most of us have never actually met in person before. But I still think it might be fun.
So please put my name on the list. I'm game. :D

I'm not crazy about compliment threads. It sometimes leads to hurt feelings if anyone is left out.

My apologies everyone. Things got very hectic around here, and I completely forgot about this thread.

Go ahead and start your compliment lists. I've already received a couple.

You've got a week from today! Get going! :)

Aren't we supposed to get a list of participants or something? Never having done this before, I'm confused :confused:
